Angel,
Honestly, the demands you are making of me in posts, in NM, in e-mail have just become a barrage. I have to cope with some major issues of my own in real life right now, especially a severe concussion and neck and shoulder injuries from the car crash. I told you that meant that on some days I'd not be able to get to the computer. But beyone that, I'm afraid you are making emotional demands on me, demanding a degree of 24/7 support from me and me alone, that I cannot physically or mentally or emotionally provide. This relationship is beginning to feel like a siphon draining off what emotional and psychological and physical strength I have. I can't be your sole support system, and, I'm sorry, luv, being your sole support system can't become my life. I must confess that I'm disappointed that you resorted to fabricating an emergency situation here. That should tell you that you need professional assistance -- the kind your T or a hospital is qualified to provide, but I as a layman am not. I didn't come to this board because I was perfectly healthy; I have issues and needs that demand my attention, too. Please take more of the support you need from the others here and from your physicians. I'm just not up to it. I don't have the education in psychiatric medicine and I don't have the capability. I'm one of the walked wounded, too -- now moreso than ever, with the post-concussive syndrome. I think need me to be Superman, but the fact is, that's something I'll never be for anybody. Cheshire Cat.

What fabrication? My mother is extremely ill. I didn't make that up at all. I took her to the hospital. I wish you wouldn't have made these comments to me in public.

I'm not expecting you to be Superman, nobody can do that. I've always shown you incredible concern and you can't honestly deny that. I've been very worried about you and you know that. You promised me that you would email me after you went back to work to let me know how you are but you didn't. THAT's why I've been so concerned about you.

I also can't believe that you could think for even one minute that I would make something up about my mom. That just blows me away that you can even think that I would do that. If I had a scanner, I'd show you the hospital parking ticket because you have to pay to park there. Why do you want to believe the worst about me? I've never lied to anyone here, especially you!!! So why do you think I am now???

Thanks for understanding why I lied at the time. I'm glad that you and others are there for me. I have a call into my T. I'm waiting for her to call me back.

AG,
I can't answer for Ches, but when I was reading this thread just now, I got confused about the post where you start saying you had lied. I had to click on the message you were replying to figure it out. I think you were saying you lied that your mom was going to be okay. Is that correct? Because perhaps others including Cheshire cat might have been confused like I was.

That being sad, I hope she is improving. And I hope your stress level is going down.

((((AG)))))

I'm sorry if I sounded confusing. The ONLY lie I said was in this thread where I said my mom was going to be ok. The reason I did that was because I felt so overwhelmed with her being so sick and I just didn't feel up to talking about it.

I did take her to the hospital. She did have a stroke. She's not well at all. I would never make anything like that up. I'm hurt that anybody would feel that I would.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
